/// A `Point` lattice, corresponding to a single instance of `T`.
///
/// Will runtime panic if a merge between inequal values is attempted.
///
/// The `Provenance` generic param is a token for the origin of this point. The parameter can be
/// used to differentiate between points with different provenances. This will prevent them from
/// being merged together, avoiding any posibility of panic.
///
/// Like [`Conflict<T>`](crate::Conflict) but will panic instead of going to a "conflict" top
/// state.
///
/// Can be thought of as a lattice with a domain of size one, corresponding to the specific value
/// inside.
///
/// This also can be used to wrap non lattice data into a lattice in a way that typechecks.
